Wearing the cannon fodder little koi in the imperial examination essay

No matter how ups and downs the mood was, the father and daughter got up and set off before dawn the next day. When it was close to noon, they were seen outside the south gate of Tongyang County.

Song Xiahe huddled behind her father, passed the inspection of the city gate cautiously, and followed her father all the way through the shady city gate. When her vision felt bright and open again, what caught her eyes was a different kind of prosperity. .

The noisy streets are bustling with pedestrians, and the excitement is extraordinary. Song Xiahe, who is as curious as Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, feels that she can't use her eyes enough to look around.

Song Sande, who was still leading the way, stopped suddenly, and his forehead hit his father's back, and Song Xiahe finally came to his senses.

She raised her hand and rubbed her forehead, looking at her father who was standing still, Song Xiahe pointed to the bustling street and raised doubts.

"Father, are you familiar with the size of the county? Do you know where my second brother is?"

Song Sande shook his head, "Your grandfather said that your second brother is studying in the Li Family Academy in Sanyuan Lane in the east of the city. Anyway, let's go to the east of the city first. If it doesn't work, we won't be able to find it by then. We will find out if we ask someone." .”

The little country bumpkin Song Xiahe naturally didn't say anything, nodded repeatedly, stepped forward in two steps, and put his little hand into his father's rough hand, and the father and daughter rushed to the east of the city.

The two walked all the way and asked all the way.

When he was about to arrive at Sanyuan Lane, he saw many people surrounded by a big acacia tree by the side of the road, and Song Xiahe, a little bumpkin, became curious.

When walking through the crowd with her father, she subconsciously tilted her head and tried to look at the bustling place, as if she really wanted to figure out what these people were doing here.

It was also a coincidence that at this point Song Xinglin was locked up in the academy and could not get out, and Yu Su was the only one working at the stall, so it was naturally difficult.

Seeing that there was not much oatmeal left in the bucket beside Yu Su, the people queuing up became even more anxious, swarming up to her small car, for fear that she would be just a little late and make another empty trip just like a few days ago. Can't buy the same.

The crowded Yu Su's car was hit and swayed. She was so anxious that she couldn't care about the iron plate grilling on the charcoal stove, and put her hands on the side of the car to stabilize the body. Yu Su kept yelling anxiously.

"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, everyone is queuing, queuing, there is still half a bucket of pulp, and the people who are queuing can basically buy it right now, everyone, don't worry, don't worry... Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, whoever Squeeze, I won't sell it to him..."

Yu Su's voice was crisp and anxious, and especially loud.

Song Xiahe, who was poking his head around to see what happened, pricked up his ears, and heard a familiar voice.

She who had just withdrawn her gaze, turned quickly to the crowded place, her hand kept pulling her father's hand and shouting, "Daddy, daddy? I seem to have heard the voice of the second sister-in-law, Dad, did you hear that?"

Song Sande naturally heard it too, the voice was so loud and familiar, why couldn't he hear it?

Song Sande nodded towards his daughter, holding her daughter tightly with one hand without saying a word, and walked closer to the direction of the voice with the other hand.

The crowd at the front who were shoved and shoved became anxious again. There was a bad-tempered person who turned around in an extremely bad manner and yelled, "What's the crowd, you are not allowed to jump in line, do you know that? The little boss has already said that, if anyone doesn't If you line up, you won't sell him! You still have to squeeze your hair!"

Song San was honest, just now he was just subconsciously eager to see someone, so he forgot to push forward, but was scolded like this, Song San was stunned, his dark and rough face suddenly flushed red, very a little What to do.

The movement here happened to attract the attention of the people around me. In such a gap, Yu Su, who was sitting in the back of the car, raised her head subconsciously. Through the gaps in the crowd, she saw the bewildered third uncle and the third uncle at a glance. Beside him, the second younger sister who opened her mouth anxiously to defend herself.

Yu Su's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly shouted, "Third Uncle, Second Sister! Third Uncle, Second Sister..."

Song Xiahe hurriedly turned her head to look in the direction of the sound, but it was a pity that there were too many people, she only heard the sound but couldn't see the second sister-in-law. Sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, I am here, I am here, where are you?"

Sure enough, he saw the right person, Yu Su's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked the customers surrounded by the stall.

"Good-hearted guest officers, can you all make room? Let my third uncle and my second sister come over. This is my family's helper. When they come over, the cakes on my side will be baked faster. Everyone You don’t have to wait that long.”

When everyone heard what Yu Su said, well, let Yu Su decisively give way, revealing Song Sande's father and daughter who were still stunned and at a loss.

Song Xiahe watched Huo's narrow road appear in front of him. At the end of the road, his second sister-in-law was smiling and sitting in a strange, car, car?Smiling at herself from behind, Song Xiahe's mood suddenly relaxed.

Finally found someone!

Yu Su hurriedly waved to the father and daughter, "Third Uncle, Second Sister, come quickly, come and help, the guest officials are waiting."

When the voice came, the person who had yelled at Song Sande just heard the sound, his expression changed, and suddenly he changed from angry and serious to a smile, his attitude changed like a god, and he pushed Song Sande forward again and again, yelling. Boba's attitude is very good, "Hey, brother, you are the family of the little boss, hey! Look at me, this is a flood that has rushed to the Dragon King Temple, third uncle, please, please, hurry up, you Look, the little boss is calling you."

Song Sande's mood today was like a roller coaster. He only hated himself and was not good at expressing himself. Now that he was treated so warmly by the person who was aggressive with him just now, he didn't know what to do.

Song Xiahe, who was still beside her, bowed to the other party, apologized, and after a sweet smile, hurriedly dragged her father to her second sister-in-law, "Father, let's hurry up, the second sister-in-law is asking us for help."

Song Sande, who was being dragged away, besides responding incessantly to help, he just let his daughter drag him away...

When she got closer, Yu Su didn't care about the small talk, so many people were still waiting for her cake, so she pointed at the empty seat beside her and said to Song Xiahe even more.

"Third Uncle, Second Sister, don't say anything, please help me first, Third Uncle, help me weigh the scale, Second Sister, help me pack cakes and collect money."

Song Sande didn't have any objections, he was used to obeying the orders of his parents, brother and sister-in-law at home, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with being assigned by a junior.

As soon as Yu Su's words fell, Song Sande nodded in agreement, took off the pannier he was carrying behind him and put it aside, walked to the small cart, grabbed the scale beam and was ready to fight.

Only Song Xiahe was a little hesitant. She looked at Yu Su and hesitated cautiously, "Second sister-in-law, otherwise you should ask me to do something else, or I will do this work for you."

As for collecting money... It's not like I don't know how to do it. After all, my second sister-in-law taught me to count from one to one hundred during my rest period, and taught her how to count to a hundred. It's simple. She can do the arithmetic.

Seeing Song Xiahe pointing at the flipped iron plate in his hand, Yu Su shook his head decisively.

Seeing the little girl's expression, Yu Su also guessed why the other party was hesitating. She smiled nonchalantly, and lit the heating iron plate on the stove.

"Second sister, the heat of this baked cake is very important, you may not be sure when you come here, this can only be done by myself, you will be a little bit tired, put the cake on the side for me to settle the score, don't worry, I believe you can do it, it's just a wrong calculation Don’t be afraid of getting billed, besides, our customers are all people with good consciences, and they won’t bully a little girl like you.”

The previous words are my comfort, and also my deep trust in my second sister; the latter sentence... Hehehe, needless to say, you will know the customers who are nodding and patting their chests in front of the stall;

Seeing Yu Su's attitude, Song Xiahe no longer pretended to evade.

At home, the second sister-in-law treats me the best, they are the closest, and the second sister-in-law trusts herself so much, what else can she do?
Song Xiahe immediately rolled up his sleeves, his eyes lit up as he looked at the guest, "Come on, who's coming next? How much do you want to call this guest?".

Seeing that the father and daughter entered into a state instantly, Yu Su was satisfied.

She ordered the cake and explained briefly: "Second sister, this cake costs three pennies a penny, twenty pennies a catty, you just need to pay attention, you must use a bamboo clip to hold the cake, and hands that have touched money must not touch the cake." That's it."

Song Xiahe nodded, and responded crisply, "Okay, second sister-in-law, I understand."

With two helpers, Song Xinglin ordered an extra iron board for her since the business was good. Yu Su, who was free, took turns to join the two iron boards, and the progress of the sales was much faster.

One catty for you, half a catty for me, and it won't take long for the remaining half bucket of pulp to bottom out.

When Yu Su reckoned that there would still be a plate of cake in the end, he waved away the customers who came behind in line: "Customers behind, today's cakes are used up, and there is only the last plate of cake left, everyone, stop queuing, don't line up. Lah, those who want to eat baked cakes, please go early tomorrow."

All the late guests...they looked at Yu Su with resentment.

"I said, little girl, can't you get more pulp every day? Who does business like you, who only sells for half a day every day, and you don't earn money if you have money, it's really..."

"That's right, little boss, I've done it several times. When you come back, you close the booth early. It's not even noon. How come you don't have any?"

"Little boss, I suggest you get more food every day, and come to the stall in the afternoon. It is rare for us in Tongyang to meet such a fresh food. The elderly and children in the family love it, but you are too much, little boss. It sells a little bit every day..."

In the face of complaints and complaints, Yu Su ignored them, just kept pretending to be stupid, and laughed dryly at the complaining guests.

"Thanks to all the elders, folks, and neighbors who value it and like our scholar's baked cakes. It's just a small business. The family at home has to go to school, so I'm busy alone. I set up a stall in the morning and stock up in the afternoon. I got too much My arms and legs are too busy to come here, even my small car can’t fit! So it can only be hard work everyone rushes tomorrow morning, I’m sorry, I would like to thank everyone for your love and support for our scholar’s ​​baked cakes, thank you ,thanks……"

Facing such a situation for the first time, the busy and sweaty Song Sande and Song Xiahe father and daughter were just so dumb, watching Yu Su like a different person, not at all stage fright, Greeting all kinds of people enthusiastically, you come and go, the eyes of both father and daughter are straight.

Is this still their family's honest, well-behaved, cute, nephew and daughter-in-law (little second sister-in-law) who doesn't have a strong sense of presence?
It means that Su finally got rid of the poor customers who were standing in front of the stall, and sold the last piece of cake to the last customer who made a round cake. look like.

Yu Su was funny.

"Third Uncle, Second Sister, thank you for helping me today, otherwise I wouldn't be able to do it at all."

Song Sande who was woken up by Yu Su didn't dare to act, the honest man waved his hands again and again, "No, no, I didn't help much, it was just a matter of supporting the handle."

Song Xiahe also nodded in agreement with her father's words.

Looking at the honest father and daughter, Yu Su knew that they had such a temper, so he didn't say much, but kept each other's help in mind, and greeted people while packing up and preparing to close the stall.

"Third Uncle, Second Sister, it's rare for you to come to the city. Are you here to find me and my little brother? Let's go talk about anything, how about I close the stall first?"

The father and daughter naturally had no objection, they all nodded without saying a word and hurriedly reached out to help.

The three of them moved together, just a few things, and they were quickly put away.

In the end, Song San had to meet Su to push the cart. As an elder, since he was here, it was naturally impossible for a junior like Yu Su to push the cart. This couldn't stop Song Sande at all.

He waved away Yu Su, who was about to push the cart, and let her go with Song Xiahe. He picked up the basket of vegetables on his back, stretched out his hand to test the weight of the cart, and asked Yu Su for a fixed wooden barrel. He tied the rope between the two handrails of the cart, pulled it hard after tying it, and after confirming that it was secure, Song Sande easily grabbed the rope between the handrails of the cart and greeted the two little girls.

"Erlang's family, second sister, let's go, our family is gone."

Seeing the third uncle grabbing the rope and walking away easily, Yu Su and Song Xiahe let out a hey, and followed up empty-handed.

Although I don't know why the third uncle and the second sister came to the city today, but since they came and helped me, there is no reason for me to let others suffer in vain, and it is inevitable to entertain them.

The vegetable market entrance in Tongyang City is in the south of the city. Generally, the residents in the city go early to buy vegetables, so that they can buy fresh fruits and vegetables. If they go late, they have to go before noon. The vegetables in the vegetable market are also the leftovers picked in the morning.

If you wait until after noon to buy vegetables, only those vegetable sellers with high prices are left at the entrance of the vegetable market, and the vegetables are not fresh.

At this point in time, the sun was shining, and it was obviously too late for me to go to the south of the city to buy vegetables, and I couldn't buy anything.
